SMA® Pro First Infant Milk, our best alternative to breast milk, when baby is not breastfed. Breastfeeding provides the best start for your baby but if you decide to combination feed or bottle-feed, choose SMA Pro First Infant Milk, nutritionally complete with Omega 3 & 6 LCPs and GOS/FOS.

Over the past 90 years, SMA® Nutrition has invested in early life nutrition research. As a result, SMA® Pro is born. Inspired by the specific nutritional needs of babies, SMA Pro represents some of our most advanced formulas yet.

This table is a guide only; your baby may need more or less than the volumes stated. If you require more advice, consult your healthcare professional. Remember to feed your baby on demand. Mix 1 scoop of powder to 30 ml (approx. 1 fl. oz.) of water.

Important Feeding Information

Do not add extra powder or water to make the feeds stronger or weaker and do not press powder into scoop. Using too much or too little powder can make your baby ill.

We recommend preparing each feed in individual bottles when required.

For hygienic reasons, discard unfinished feed in the bottle as soon as possible, and always within 2 hours.

For older babies, made-up milk can be added to food.

Never add any food to the milk in your baby's bottle.

Do not warm feeds in a microwave, hot spots may occur and cause scalding.

Remember, cows' milk should not be used as a drink during the first year.

Preparing your baby's feed

Whilst this product is made under strict hygienic conditions, it is not sterile.

Failure to follow instructions on preparation and storage may make your baby ill.

2. Boil 1 litre of fresh tap water. Allow boiled water to cool for no more than 30 minutes. Measure the required amount of water (see feeding guide) into a sterilised bottle, carefully - the water is hot. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.

3. Using the scoop provided, add the correct number of scoops of powder (see feeding guide), levelling off each scoop with the back of a clean dry knife.

4. Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake well. Cool bottle under cold running water or in a bowl or jug of cold water until lukewarm.

Test temperature by shaking a few drops onto the inside of your wrist.

Hazards and Cautions

Important notice

Breast milk is best for babies and breastfeeding should continue for as long as possible. Infant milk should only be used on the advice of a doctor, midwife, health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian or pharmacist, or other professionals responsible for maternal and child care.

When bottle-feeding, do not allow prolonged or frequent contact of milk feeds with teeth as this increases the risk of tooth decay. Ask your healthcare professional or dentist for advice.

Never leave your baby alone during feeding as there is a risk they might choke.
